When we began our exploration of WINGS, we found ourselves in a very dark place of self-examination—surrounded by temptation, and feeling very lost. This has been a journey of discovery, allowing us to acknowledge the duality within ourselves that is necessary for growth and change. And now here we are—our last week with this amazing album.

As we continue exploring the landmark album WINGS, this week features more incredible music that focuses on exploring the duality of self, and looking inward to find what’s important for learning and growth. We’ll also touch on some absolutely legendary moments in BTS history, such as moments from backstage and VLives that are responsible for countless memes and inside jokes.

As we continue our exploration of WINGS this week, we dive into the rest of the album’s solo songs. They’re all uniquely tailored to the member performing them, as each member actively participated in the writing process (except Jung Kook, though he did contribute ideas). Each song also continues to deal with how ‘facing temptation’ affects the struggle between appearances and self-realization, and how important it is to embrace duality.

Released on October 10, 2016, WINGS was BTS’ second full-length studio album, and their most ambitious to date. It contains 15 tracks, including (for the first time ever) a solo song from each member. The theme this time—what happens when ‘youth’ faces temptation?
